It’s telling that there’s no Impeachment thread on VS...

When I am POTUS I intend to ride the daily pirate races at Hains Point in the District and the Secret Service will hate me for it.

[Mabouya]

and the Secret Service will hate me for it.

Not if they get to procure (on govt money, of course) super-fancy full carbon bikes with the most expensive high-zoot wheels DARPA can develop for them.

Campy? thats nonsense, he has no taste at all so he probably has Sram since that is what the shop needed to get rid of.

President Trump is absolutely HILARIOUS at the Michigan rally streaming now:

[BBB]

BTW...President Trump only posts here very infrequently and under a handle that I will not disclose.
He never uses profanity with fellow cyclists. He also prefers titanium frames with Campagnolo parts.

Hilarious. Trump as a cyclist.

His MAGA routine would sort of work. He could brandish a hand made frame as a good example of local manufacturing (setting aside where the steel or titanium might have originated). He might be a bit discombobulated by Campagnolo parts. He could wear made in America kit and feature wearing the same on The Radavist or some such.

The tacky golf resorts could be replaced by bike hotels. I'm sure he could work out how to cheat on Strava or Zwift. Or dope.

The Maccas could be replaced by something a bit more healthy.

The diet coke could be replaced by a refreshing beer after a hearty ride in the hills. An American beer of course.

This active and healthy life style would mean a slimmed down Trump and no need for fibs and mis-information after the annual check up.

Fox news replaced by live feeds of European races.

Affairs or adultery would divide the fan base, but it has great historical precedent. Look at Coppi? And given the odd comments about his daughter...well look no further than Anquetil.

Hey now! That cuts deep.

It should be fun at the tiki torch MAGAt rally tonight. Will his dentures hold?

"Gob, bess, the unibed stash ob 'Merica." Or is that just his adderrall addled brain?

I went to a lunch a couple of weeks ago where i got told I was part of the "educated elite". That doesn't happen at home.

But at the same lunch it was given as a statement of fact that a) Trump would not actually be impeached regardless of what he may or may not have done and b) he would be re-elected, largely due to the advantages of the incumbent etc etc.

Anyhoo, we have our own numpty to worry about, and I know America is managed on the basis that more people vote than have passports, but from the outside looking in as a non-American, Trump does no favours for the perception of America.

Also, I like to think if I get to 73 and I'm stupidly rich, I'd have more self indulgent ways to spend my time. Actually, I don't care how much money I have. If I get to 73 I like to think I'll have more self-indulgent ways to spend my time. B

We have fires to worry about. Our own numpty is MIA.

Which is worrying....I wonder what would happen if we had an election now? Would people still vote for this? Smoke haze in Sydney again today. But it's probably not the right time to talk about it.

Profanity is truly unbecoming on VSalon as we are all friends here.

There's another cultural difference. I don't think anyone who isn't American says "profanity", although I've only got experience of Australia and England. And again... views from afar and all that. YMMV.

But to me, America comes across as a country where shooting people is accepted as a part of life, but swearing at them is not OK. WTF?

[Blue Jays]

Colinmclelland...the reason I do not use profanity is because I consider you all friends and we're just chatting.

[HorsCat]

I’m guessing Blue Jays is out for an evening troll. But your assessment of America is pretty on point. Still, it’s a good place, Trump and the MAGA brigade notwithstanding.

Hilarious. Trump as a cyclist.

How can you not remember the Tour de Trump? From the video...”Trump had big plans, of course. “This is an event that can be tremendous in the future, and it can really, very much rival the Tour de France,” he told NBC.”

Someone ought to start a new thread.

I'm just here for the bikes......
